  • New Jerusalem Version (NJV) Bible Review
    New Jerusalem Version (NJV) The following is a written summary of our full-length video review featuring excerpts, discussions of key issues ​ and texts, and lots of pictures, and is part of our Bible Review series. ​ ​ Do you recommend it? Why? Two thumbs up! The New Jerusalem Version takes first place in our list of recommended Messianic Bibles. Read on to learn why. Who's this Bible best for? The New Jerusalem Version is your best choice if you're looking for a literal translation with some Hebrew names and keywords that's respectful towards Judaism and looks like a real Bible. Would you suggest this as a primary or a secondary Bible? Why? The NJV is ideal as a primary Bible to carry around and read from on a regular basis because it contains the Scriptures from Genesis to Revelation, is literal enough to be used as a study Bible, and is large enough to be easy on the eyes when reading but not so large as to be clunky. How's this version's relationship with the Jews and Judaism? In short, excellent. The New Jerusalem Version belies a deep familiarity with Jewish customs and sensibilities. For instance, the books of the Hebrew Bible are in the Jewish order rather than how they were later rearranged by Christianity. Similarly, the books are called by both their Hebrew and English names and the chapters and verses follow the Jewish numbering with the alternative Christian numbering in brackets. Personal names and words close to the Jewish heart are also transliterated so as to retain their original resonance.

  • Versions and Translations the Following Outlines Some of the Key
    Versions and Translations The following outlines some of the key characteristics of several Bibles currently in use. A number of the Bible translations most popular in the Western world today can be found in searchable form online (see: http://www.ntgateway.com/bible-translations/). The King James Version (KJV) The translation was planned from 1604 and published in 1611 under the auspices of King James VI of England. This Bible has become one of the most influential English books in modern Western civilization. It served as a unifier of English politics and religious disagreements. The King James Bible uses an economy of words and voices beautiful cadences that have led many to call it elegant. It remains a favorite in many Protestant circles. The Douay-Rheims Bible The first English translation for Roman Catholics was produced in Douay and Rheims in France from 1582-1610. It is based not upon the Hebrew and Greek text but rather the Vulgate, the Latin translation that was the authoritative Bible for the Catholic Church for much of its history. Its close adherence to the Latin makes many passages difficult for contemporary readers to understand, and it has largely fallen into disuse in many Catholic quarters. It is sometimes called the Rheims-Douay Bible. The American Standard Version (ASV) The growing sense that the KJV was based on less-than-ideal manuscripts and philological knowledge led to the British Revised Version in 1885. An American edition, the ASV, came out in 1901 and represented several hundred further emendations to suit its American audience. The ASV is sometimes thought of as by students of biblical languages as a particularly “wooden” translation, and it does in some respects seek to replicate the feel of the original, for example in using “Jehovah” rather than “Lord,” or “Sheol” rather than “grave/Hell.” However, the ASV is also quite euphemistic in places.

  • Life Application Study Bible and the New Interpreter’S Study Bible
    Study Bible Reviews NOTE: I only have experience with The New Oxford Annotated Bible, the Life Application Study Bible and The New Interpreter’s Study Bible. Each resource has its strengths and weaknesses that are best experienced when compared to another resource (read that: in group study). Any of the below listed would be a good start. I believe that they are all under $40 on Amazon and probably at the Christian Bookstore in Mt. Kisco. --Todd The New Oxford Annotated Bible with Apocrypha (New Revised Standard Version): offers a ​ ​ vast range of information, including extensive notes by experts in their fields; in-text maps, charts, and diagrams; supplementary essays on translation, biblical interpretation, cultural and historical background, and other general topics. Extensively revised--half of the material is brand new--featuring a new design to enhance readability and brand-new color maps, the Annotated Fourth Edition adds to the established reputation of this ​ ​ essential biblical studies resource. Many new and revised maps, charts, and diagrams further clarify information found in the Scripture text. In addition, section introductions have been expanded and the book introductions present their information in a standard format so that students can find what they need to know. Life Application Study Bible (NIV): Along with all the application helps, this Bible is ​ equipped with: ● Personality profiles which explain the background and significance of over 100 Bible characters ● Book introductions which include vital statistics, overviews, and historical timelines ● 200 in-text thumbnail maps highlighting important places and events ● 260 charts explaining important difficult concepts and relationships ● Cross-references ● Harmony of the gospels ● Dictionary ● Concordance ● Reading Plans ● Full-color maps This Bible was made for anyone who reads their Bible and finds themselves saying, “So what?” The New Interpreter’s Study Bible brings the best of biblical scholarship to the service of the ​ ​ ​ Church.
